Steven B. Grant completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2022. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Grant's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Term Limits for Congress: End the Aristocracy and Corruption that is plaguing our Legislature. The ability of Independent-expenditure-only political committees (Super PACs) to accept unlimited contributions and legalized gerrymandering has created a cesspool of our Democratic Republic. Congress needs to enact fairness in campaign financing and reform the Voting Rights act to stop State legislatures from stacking and packing voting districts.
- Immigration Court Reform: Create an Independent Judiciary to Incentivize Legal Immigration. One of my ideas to solve the issue of undocumented immigrants in the USA, would be to expand the International Immigration Offices for the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services Agency. Our country had Ellis Island, Angel Island, and the Freedom Tower; immigration stations are a must for current and future refugees or asylees. I believe birthright citizenship needs to be debated as non-citizens are abusing the 14th amendment.
- Military Expansion: Keep our Country Safe and Provide more Opportunities for our Youth. Our Military needs to include the Peace Corps and AmeriCorps to assist with providing humanitarian aid domestically and around the world. Furthermore, our Military needs to be more sustainable and less reliant on contractors for non-combat careers.
